The Community of Madrid has organized for this Tuesday a tribute to the Venezuelan people after the catastrophe caused by the double earthquake of last June 24, which has caused nearly 2,300 deaths and more than 11,000 injured. The tribute will take place at the Puerta del Sol at 7:00 PM.
The regional Executive has called on citizens to attend to show their support in these days of mourning, as well as to convey their gratitude to the rescue teams and volunteers, in addition to sending a message of solidarity and hope.
Before this event, the president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, will hold a meeting with the president-elect of Venezuela, Edmundo González Urrutia, in order to address the situation and the coordinated actions that the regional Government has been developing since the emergency began.
The Madrid Executive announced that seven health professionals from the Medical Emergency Service (Summa 112) traveled this Wednesday to Venezuela to provide support in emergency health care following the intense earthquakes registered the previous week.
The contingent is made up of two doctors, two nurses, and three Health Emergency Technicians (TES), who will join other specialists from different autonomous communities within the START team of the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID).
These seven health workers have joined the six who have already been operating since Friday in Venezuelan territory as the Health Intervention Team (EIS) of the Immediate Response Team of the Community of Madrid (ERICAM).
